Jwala Gutta to debut in Tollywood with an item number

The ace badminton champ, who has been mired in controversies, is all ready to step into tinsel town

She showed her skills on the sports field; now, she is all geared up to shake a leg in movies. Badminton ace Jwala Gutta will be doing an item song in a Telugu movie. She will be making her debut opposite Nithin in the film Gunde Jaari Gallanthayyinde, which will incidentally also be the directorial debut of Vijay Kumar Konda.

“Nithin and the producer are my good friends and they told me about this song. I thought they were kidding but after I heard the song, I thought why not give it a shot. After all, life is one and I like trying out new things,” Jwala told a news agency. She also added, “The song is peppy and casual. I was nervous on first day of my shoot (on Monday) as there were lots of people on the set and it is a different experience. I had to do rehearsals for the steps for a week and it was fun.”
